HC Deb 14 March 1967 vol 743 c62W
124. Mr. Ramsden

asked the Minister of Labour whether he has sought and obtained estimates of any relationship between regional and national unemployment in the years before 1965.

Mr. Fernyhough

Yes. Percentage rates of unemployment for Great Britain and for each of the regions both actual and seasonaly adjusted are published monthly. The relative movements both in years before 1965 and since are the subject of careful study by the Government.
